    I don't have a smartphone, and the phone I use, I try to limit that.

    I use my iPhone for EVERYTHING! I don't view it as a phone, I view it as a tool. It's as much a part of my life as my computer.

    I wish I had a smart phone but I do have to say, that technology like-coupons on your cell and stuff-usually doesn't get to my county for a long while anyway.

    Totally, live with my phone as one of my main tools.. I travel so much that it makes so much sense to have a smartphone as the one tool I take everywhere. I just realized I haven't had a 'house' landline for about 12 years now.. amazing! Thank YOU Foursquare, Google, Facebook and other social media platforms that have assisted in creating a more connected community.

    I am not sure it is worth the money to get a 'smart' phone. I see people tied to their phones and ask myself is it really that important???

    Yes it did change the way I shop. I do not take the sales persons word as true. I check everything from price, to models, to reviews. I even sometimes look at a product in shop, discuss prices while being on the phone, if they can't match the deal I order it immediately online. And I agree that e-coupons usually are only available in big cities, that should change ASAP.

    I don't have a smart phone. I would love to, however the service in general is so expensive and so my kids come first..
